Building for the future
In May 2011, imec has started building a new office tower. When completed, the tower will have 16 floors with office space for 450 people and additional room for light laboratories. With the new building, imec’s research campus will total 80,000m2. With its campus extension, imec aspires to play an important role in both the local and worldwide high-tech economy. The construction is planned to be finished mid-2013.
The imec tower: icon for innovation in Flanders & Europe
The design of the building was selected through an architecture contest. A jury – including representatives from the city of Leuven and the Flemish government – has selected the design of the Austrian architects Baumschlager-Eberle.
